Travel to rural areas provides a different experience for tourists by offering a lifestyle in rural areas. One of them is by providing an experience of staying with the villagers (homestay). However, the demands of tourists for homestay facilities will affect the behavior and habits of the village community. How the adaptability of both parties changes the current behavior and lifestyle so that it can impact the design of facilities. The purpose of this paper is to identify the changes in behavior and lifestyle of both parties to initiate the design of tourist facilities in the homestay to meet the requirements of tourist attractions. The theories, a survey, and observation conducted were supported by literature reviews with a particular focus on existing facilities in the homestay. The study results have shown that behavioral and lifestyle adaptations from both parties make a positive contribution to initiate a proper design in a homestay by tourist standard.
